I have received proposals from Iarnród Éireann for the electrification of the Maynooth line and for the construction of a new city centre rail station as part of an overall greater Dublin integrated rail plan.

The Iarnród Éireann integrated plan is being considered in the context of the multi-annual investment framework for transport that my Department is preparing at present. The company will be required to prepare and receive approval for a business case for each individual project within the integrated plan before it proceeds.
